weird noise comming from the rear?

Whenever I go over small bumps or when i'm making a turn, I hear some dry clunking sound comming from the rear. It sounds like when a shock is dead, but I already changed the rear shocks and it still makes that sound. It's not the wheel bearings because I tried shaking it and there is no play. I'm guessing it could be the rear end links. Anybody can tell me what's the problem? Thanks!!

It's the old bushings where the trailing arm meets the chassis.

The bushings last normally 100,000-200,000 miles.
It's not a safety issue.

Meaning the the suspension bushings more outside of the brakes or more closer to the brakes like where the toe control rod boot is?
